Penrose Saunder purchased the home in 1911. The 1916 civic census reports that this home was then occupied by Mr Saunder (34 years), his wife Florence (34 years), their son Joseph (2 years) and their maid, Myrtle Gardner (18 years).
By the 1970s, the home had been converted into five suites, with 3 in the basement. Monthly rent for a basement suite was $45.
